[00:00:01]

Good morning, millennials.

[00:00:04]

Oh, my God. I forgot to put my rings on today. Divorce.

[00:00:06]

Turtle's getting divorced. Extra, extra.

[00:00:10]

I think we should just, like, have started the show already.

[00:00:13]

Like the show has started.

[00:00:15]

Welcome back to the toast. Happy Friday. Should that be our new. Are you sure? How about this? Do you like that?

[00:00:25]

You want to sabotage your show?

[00:00:27]

No, I'm just inspired. I sound like Romeo today.

[00:00:30]

Oh, Romeo, Romeo, wherefore out that Romeo secret project reveal?

[00:00:35]

We said we've been teasing something all week. A lot of people thought I was going to the Oscars. Lol.

[00:00:41]

Even better.

[00:00:43]

Better. I went up the Oscars. Irrelevant. Romeo. The name on everybody's lips. That's right. If you've been following my journey over the past couple of months, it's been really trying.

[00:00:53]

It's not been the best.

[00:00:56]

It's not been the best. Personally, I've been going through a lot. I lost the absolute love of my life. And I actually have been healing from know Theo, my furry angel who is watching over us in heaven. I had made a lot of progress, actually, in my healing journey, actually, his cancer diagnosis. And then the weeks that followed were really hard. But I've actually been doing better. I really have. I felt like I had grown and I made a big life change. In the last couple of weeks, we have procured a new son. His name is Romeo. He's an angel. He's about twelve weeks old. And let me tell you, don't believe everything you see on social media. I'm struggling. I feel like it's reopened my wound with Theo. Yeah, I was doing better until.

[00:01:39]

In what ways?

[00:01:40]

They look so much alike. I don't know if it's dog mannerisms or this dog has the same mannerisms as Theo, or just all dogs do it.

[00:01:47]

Probably a bit of little things. And also the breed.

[00:01:49]

The breed, like little things, you know, like the tiny little things. I'm like, oh, that's so Theo.

[00:01:54]

Yeah, but does that not make you feel like Romeo might be the reincarnated spirit of Theo? Especially because when did Theo pass? And when was Romeo born? Did his soul just enter into Romeo's body?

[00:02:06]

Let me get you the exact dates. I know that Romeo was born on December 14, 2023.

[00:02:12]

Okay.

[00:02:13]

It's within days. It's not within days.

[00:02:15]

Actually. I think this works out. I think Theo passed a week before that.

[00:02:19]

I think it was exactly a week on December 7.

[00:02:26]

So I think that the soul goes through a week long process before December 7. The soul goes through a week long process before it's ready to enter a new show.

[00:02:35]

So Theo died on the 7th and Tromio was like in utero for one more week. I feel as though they definitely communicated.

[00:02:43]

Yeah, I think when you think about it that way.

[00:02:52]

Yeah. No, by the way, I have no regrets. I have no regrets. Like I needed another dog. I totally feel like there was some sort of heavenly meeting of the minds. For sure. It's just like what the like for like I can't believe like with a new dog. Theo was supposed to be my whole life. Yeah, it's disgusting. I'm really happy. I don't want to like he's so cute.

[00:03:15]

He's so cute.

[00:03:16]

He's mom's angel. I vlogged the entire experience from start to finish from literally finding Romeo to picking him up to dropping him. It's been a weeks long vlog. We started the vlog the first week of February. So it's been a month. Actually it's at slash the toast. There's a nice tribute in there to crunchy angel Dora and it's know we're back in the puppy stage feeling like a newborn. Know, even though Romeo's such a good dog and we had sent him for a month to dog friendly living, which is our Bruno magnolia, Theo's training round. Theo actually invented dog friendly living. Now everyone's like, oh, magnolia loves dog friendly. Theo invented it.

[00:03:50]

Lest we not forget, that's where these dogs were trained up to become the men that they were.

[00:03:55]

Exactly. It's giving military school.

[00:03:57]

Yeah, it's giving a finishing school.

[00:04:00]

And so Romeo spent the last month there while I was at your house and in St. Bart's. So he's a little advanced. I slept from 1030 to eight. I'm fine.

[00:04:09]

That's beautiful.

[00:04:11]

So not really like a newborn mom, but major update in the life of Turtle Lou and Bensoffer celebrity. It's been great. It's been a mix of emotions. It's not just been like overwhelmingly joyous. I'm not going to lie.

[00:04:22]

Okay, thank you for your honesty. How's Ben doing?

[00:04:25]

I feel like Ben is actually healing. Like for real. Ben is back in his grumpy dad. Like, oh, I have to get up. We have to put him in the kitchen. Like he's being so fucking annoying. And I'm like, he treats these puppies like they're newborn babies. I don't even know what he's going to be like with a real child. I keep reminding Ben, I'm like, Benny's a dog. We put him in the crate and.

[00:04:45]

He'S like, no, no.

[00:04:48]

But I feel like it's really important to remember. We put Romeo in the crate and he whimpered. Of course. It's his first day in a new home, and he's in his crate, and Ben's like, what do we. Like? We let him cry.

[00:05:01]

Yeah.

[00:05:02]

Ben is just very much like, nervous hallel. New parent energy.

[00:05:06]

Got it. Oh, so now you're saying that's frightening to think about how it'll be with an actual baby in that sense. I thought you were saying he was just doing the most, so it's like he's going to do even more.

[00:05:14]

No, it's not doing the most. He's worrying about the wrong things. I keep needing to remind him to calm down.

[00:05:19]

Understood. Classic bad stuff. Classic.

[00:05:21]

I do feel like the process is healing for Ben. I'm, like, watching him heal. He's still up. Know, a couple of days ago, he was crying over Theo.

[00:05:29]

But do you think he's able to heal because he let out his emotions over the last three months and maybe you haven't let them out as much?

[00:05:36]

You think?

[00:05:37]

I don't know. Just.

[00:05:38]

I'm going.

[00:05:39]

Based on what you've shared. Like you said the other night, Ben was hysterically crying, and you couldn't deal with it. Maybe if you spent more time crying, you would be ready for the next chapter.

[00:05:48]

But I spent so much time crying those early weeks. And, oh, my God, I'm literally having ptsd because this is exactly how I remember feeling when our dad passed away. After I grieved, I was just like, bitch. I do not want to be grieving anymore. Grieving sucks. I'm just changing my mindset because I do not want to be ms all the time. I'm a happy person.

[00:06:06]

Yeah, it is a lot about mindset, but you also have to allow yourself to feel things and just don't let it get bottled up. But I do think that you have a healthy emotional process, so I'm not worried about you.

[00:06:16]

I'm doing okay. I want to let everyone know I am doing okay. Oh, my God. Except that I just spilled my fucking coffee on my Jenny Kane cashmere sweater. Fuck.

[00:06:23]

Not the Jenny Kane.

[00:06:25]

Look at this. How did I even do that? What do I.

[00:06:27]

Do?

[00:06:27]

We have a tide stick or something? I think we have a shout wipe. Oh, okay. Wait. Jenny Kane with the microfiber. It's completely gone. This isn't even an ad for Jenny Kane. But this was an expensive sweater. But it could be. Oh, obsessed. Thanks, Jenny. Speaking of Jenny Kane, just in time for a puppy to come and ruin my home. My home is really coming along fabulously. While I was at your house, I had so many furniture deliveries from CB two. I got my bar stools. I got this gorgeous reading chair. Ben's like, what's the point of this chair? I'm like, you wouldn't understand. It's for girls to read on. Like, it's just perfect. It's in the corner, it's sundrenched. It's giving, honestly, like pride and prejudice. You know what I mean?

[00:07:02]

Yeah. So far, two things that Romeo really can't mess up.

[00:07:06]

Yeah. No, actually, I didn't get any rugs from CB two.

[00:07:08]

That's true.

[00:07:08]

He can't mess up, I guess. What else did I get?

[00:07:11]

I guess he could lift his leg and pee on the side of the chair. But they don't do that at this age.

[00:07:16]

No, they don't. They don't. But I'm just, like, really excited about my home. Feel like before I left, I was hating my home because I saw, not to use a slur, but a mouse. No sightings of the mouse. All the traps were clean. And now I have all this gorgeous furniture, and I'm just feeling good in my home. I don't want to jinx it. I feel like, oh, what? I'm going to see a mouse this weekend. But I'm feeling good.

[00:07:36]

And Romeo is there to make it a home.

[00:07:39]

New beginnings. Me and my CB two furniture and Romeo.

[00:07:43]

It sounds beautiful.

[00:07:45]

Yeah, good. It's good. How are you doing? How's your home? How's your shalom bite?

[00:07:49]

I'm good. My home is great. What did I do yesterday? I went to the gym. Oh, I work so hard.

[00:07:55]

Did you do five k stuff?

[00:07:57]

Yes, I did. And I was trying to get my fastest time, but then somebody called me towards the end and I made the mistake of picking up who and I'll explain after the show. And then I just, like.

[00:08:07]

Private matter.

[00:08:08]

Yeah. And then I couldn't get off the phone, so I was walking. So my time doesn't even matter.

[00:08:14]

I guess you can't do this because you're a mother of two. But I put my phone always on do not disturb when I'm working out.

[00:08:19]

No, I also could have declined the call, but just like, based on the area code and the caller ID, it was intriguing. I was interested and I fell for.

[00:08:27]

It up until that point.

[00:08:29]

Okay, I'll finish this conversation.

[00:08:31]

Up until that point, what was your five K time?

[00:08:33]

Oh, okay. So I was probably almost at 3 miles, and I was at like 38 minutes or something like that.

[00:08:41]

Oh, so you're tracking the same. That's very good.

[00:08:44]

Yeah. I probably would have been like 43 to 45 minutes for the five K.

[00:08:48]

I'm so glad we're making so much progress. When I actually got an update yesterday, I had a call with my publicist and they assured me that the Five K still has no date and no location. So I'm so glad we're making progress.

[00:08:58]

How do the publicists know that they've.

[00:09:01]

Been in contact with Bert's team.

[00:09:02]

Bert's team?

[00:09:03]

Okay. That's how we're going to get our information moving forward.

[00:09:06]

Our people will talk to their people.

[00:09:08]

Exactly.

[00:09:10]

I like that.

[00:09:11]

Speaking of our people.

[00:09:16]

Not speaking of our people. We shouldn't speak of them.

[00:09:23]

I don't know what I was going to say, and I knew that as I was saying it, that it wasn't the right segue, and so I got distracted by my segue.

[00:09:32]

Segue distraction. I do know. Right. Well, I'm sure it'll come back to you in due time. Other than that, it's Friday, which is a joyous occasion.

[00:09:41]

Fucking great.

[00:09:42]

Here at the show, just cause to celebrate.

[00:09:46]

I remember what I was going to say. There's kind of like really big news in the jewish community of New York City. Everyone is talking about this new grocery store, and it's called Ori's. And apparently it's so fabulous, and everybody's talking about apparently one in Brooklyn that everybody dies over. They've got this cult following. So we got to go to the city for the city Jews. That's what I'm going to do this afternoon. I'm going to head up to Ori's right before Shabbos, right before closing time, because I've heard they have such a great butcher and it's very reasonably priced. But I spoke to some friends who have been there, and they said, and it reminded me of you because when I went to your house, how much fruit did I eat at your house?

[00:10:21]

We buy fruit every day.

[00:10:23]

You buy fruit every day and you're living in Florida. They're growing that shit next store.

[00:10:26]

Like, it's fresh, it's delicious, it's organic fruit here.

[00:10:29]

And the fruit in New York, oh my God, it could make you suicidal. Like, it's so sad for everyone involved.

[00:10:34]

Like it's shriveled where it's, like, artificially ripened. It has no flavor.

[00:10:40]

They said that the fruit at this place, it's like they're giving pre cut, like, fruit that's so big and everybody's talking about the fruit. The jewish community has been turned on its head by this new grocery store.

[00:10:50]

That's very exciting.

[00:10:51]

Did I say the name?

[00:10:52]

Ori's.

[00:10:53]

Ori's, yeah. I don't know. Some people are saying Ori's. Some people are saying Ori's. I don't know.

[00:10:57]

You'll get the tea when you go. Speaking of the jewish community, actually, I can't believe it took us this long to mention that. Today's International Women's Day. Our favorite day of the year.

[00:11:07]

Yes.

[00:11:08]

When someone wishes me a happy international.

[00:11:10]

Women'S Day, I know everything I need to know about them.

[00:11:13]

Or we're laughing, right? Like it's a joke. I wish me an international, happy International Women's Day today. And I was like, thank you.

[00:11:22]

Was it as a joke? I don't know. Oh, I feel like if you're telling it to me, seriously, truly, I see you, you see me. We're good.

[00:11:32]

We're good.

[00:11:32]

But if you're saying it as, like, a joke, like you just said it to me, you're my sister for life. In a literal and figurative sense, it's a hysterical joke. So happy International Women's Day to all who celebrate. Question mark.

[00:11:45]

And do, is anyone really of those who celebrate in a real, unironic, meaningful way, are you even really celebrating all women?

[00:11:54]

Question right. Have you been vocal about the women being kidnapped and raped in Gaza? The israeli women, there are still nine from their home.

[00:12:01]

Women who are held hostage in Gaza. Have you been vocal about the women who were beaten, raped, tortured and killed? Oh, and their corpses were raped, too on October 7?

[00:12:11]

Have you been vocal about the women who are reportedly still being held in Gaza and are reported to be pregnant because they've been raped so much?

[00:12:18]

Happy International Women's Day.

[00:12:20]

Because if you haven't, shut the fuck up with your graphics and respectfully, actually, disrespectfully. Eat my ass?

[00:12:29]

Yeah.

[00:12:30]

So glad we got that off our chest. It's Friday. It's going to be. Tell me about the stories. Oh, and. Oh, fuck. It's Queenie and Weenie of the week. Thank God we didn't forget.

[00:12:38]

Thank God we didn't forget. So I'll be thinking of mine during the ad break.

[00:12:44]

By the way, I need you to read some ads so I can think of mine. I actually had mine. I thought of my weenie, of course, very early on in the week. It came to me almost in a know.

[00:12:56]

Yeah.

[00:12:57]

So I have that.

[00:12:58]

Oh, I have a good queenie for you.

[00:13:00]

You do. The thing is, with Queenie and Weenie of the week, you end up knowing me better than I know myself. When I almost didn't make Annie Lennox Weenie of the week, what was I doing?

[00:13:10]

No, I don't know.

[00:13:12]

I don't know.

[00:13:13]

Okay, well, let's get into the stories. I would say that they are pretty good for a Friday. Lot of people talking. The people are talking. Yeah. Let's mark this as the time of year where the celebrities are celebritying.

[00:13:27]

That's so funny that you said that, because there are definitely times of year where doing our job is extremely difficult. The holiday season in particular, the summer celebrities take off, they're not working. But March, end of March, early February also happens to be like a very vacation heavy time. It's like the high season in St. Bart's and Aspen, like the two celebrity places. So I was actually thinking recently how lucky we've been these past weeks or two weeks with good stories.

[00:13:52]

Good stories, but I wouldn't attribute them to vacations. People are doing interviews, people are putting out music. People are just being generally interesting.

[00:14:01]

Are we talking about eternal sunshine?

[00:14:03]

We are, because I've been listening to it and there are some lyrics. She's telling her truth and we're going to parse it out.

[00:14:10]

All right, let's parse.

[00:14:11]

And I have some thoughts. So without further ado, here are the fast side stories that we need to parse through.

[00:14:18]

And the fast side stories that we need to parse through are of course brought to you by Taylor Farms, the chopped salad kits that are delivering the freshest, best tasting salads to eat at home or on the go. Across North America. Taylor Farms is a family owned company, and they are on a mission to create healthy lives through fresh, delicious food. I feel like we haven't been this influential in like years. When I tell you the food on everybody's lips, Taylor Farms, everybody's eating them.

[00:14:41]

I'm up to two a days. I had Taylor Farms again last night. I put salmon on top this time. I think this week I've had six Taylor farms salads so far. And I'm not slowing down.

[00:14:50]

So in case you're new here, Taylor Farms salads are salads in a bag. And I know what you're going to say. Like, I've preconceived notions about bag salads. They're brown, they're gross, they're not fresh, not Taylor Farms. They are reinvigorating salads. They are chopping their ingredients to oblivion. So it's like a chopped delicious salad. Because salads that aren't chopped are so toxic. I can't. They also are having fabulous know. I of course, am always going to opt for the Caesar because I'm a picky eater in that sense. But Jax, what's your favorite flavor?

[00:15:17]

Mediterranean crunch right now. OMG. Super crunchy.

[00:15:21]

By the way, the Taylor Farms ad copy team. They have seen their typo. Allow me to say this, Taylor Farms chopped salads kits defy boring in every bag with over 30 flavors. So purchase Taylor Farms chopped salad kits wherever you like to shop. They are available at all major grocery stores. They are pre washed, precut, and ready to enjoy. So throw it in a bowl, eat it in the bag, whatever makes you happy. Add a know I've been throwing some chicken in there, maybe some turkey.

[00:15:48]

I threw some meatballs on top the other day. Might have been my best combo yet.

[00:15:52]

[00:18:54]

It's been an absolute honor, nay, a privilege.

[00:18:57]

So Ariana Grande's new album came out today called Eternal Sunshine, and she is navigating the complexities of a dreaded divorce on what is being called a healing album. So we need to talk about the music and the lyrics because my favorite movie, the music itself, I was listening this morning and I thought it was really strong. There were a couple early songs that I was really enjoying, and the lyrics were. They were descriptive, but not overtly like, what's the word?

[00:19:26]

Just not subtle.

[00:19:28]

Not subtle. They were not subtle, but they weren't, like, so crazy I left Dalton. Dalton was bad. I was mad.

[00:19:39]

Now I like SpongeBob.

[00:19:40]

Right. But she is talking a little bit about what went down with Dalton, and lyrics seem to point to the fact that he had cheated on her. So everyone thinks that this is know Ari's big justice moment. Like, she wasn't a homewrecker in her relationship because Dalton was cheating on her.

[00:19:55]

Well, I'm going to hold space for two things. He could have cheated on her and she still could have been a homewrecker. One does not negate the other.

[00:20:01]

Yeah, I never was upset about the dissolution of Ari's marriage.

[00:20:05]

Nobody was.

[00:20:06]

My big question listening to this album is, why did you marry this guy? Oh, that's interesting. I think it was in 2020, or it was during COVID 2021. Nobody. Ariana Grande marries Dalton Gomez. Yeah, we never even knew that they were dating for a long time. He doesn't seem like the most interesting, handsome, successful. Got to lock him down.

[00:20:30]

Yeah. This is probably one of my least favorite tropes. Like, successful women with losers who end up cheating on them. Like. You're kidding, right?

[00:20:39]

Also, one of my least favorite tropes is like, you dated a person, you loved them. Ariana Madox introduced us to them, you took up for them, and then they weren't great, and now it's our problem.

[00:20:50]

Oh, my God. I completely agree. Ariana Maddox. I so love, you know who else.

[00:20:57]

I feel that way about? And I feel like people aren't going to like this. But Olivia Rodrigo, she's always, like, dating these guys. I don't know them. And then there's this whole album of, like, now I have to care about what this schmuck did.

[00:21:08]

That's interesting. I don't feel that way. I thought you were going to say Miley who hurt her? Because she's, like, always singing about Liam, but I actually do care.

[00:21:17]

Oh, I care. Oh, I care so much. Tell me everything. Tell me everything. And I feel like our collective and.

[00:21:22]

Liam didn't turn out to be a loser.

[00:21:24]

No. And I feel like even though they loved each other so much, it was also our collective will pushing them together. I felt like an active participant in their relationship. These other ones, I'm like, I don't know him from Adam.

[00:21:34]

No, you're right. Your thesis of shoving someone in our face. And then when things go wrong, we all have to support you. We knew Ariana. I'm really talking about Ariana Maddox. We knew.

[00:21:43]

Not even, like, we have to support you. It's like we have to care about this person that we never cared about to begin with. And we only cared about them because you made us care about them.

[00:21:50]

I don't care. Yeah, I never heard the name Dalton Gomez prior.

[00:21:54]

Yeah, like, when you're always going on your relationship, this guy's so great. I'm like, okay, and now I have to turn a switch. Why am I involved?

[00:22:03]

It's not about, how did I get here? Who gave me this switch?

[00:22:08]

Yeah, like, this is not my switch.

[00:22:10]

This is not my switch.

[00:22:12]

This is your switch.

[00:22:14]

So, yes, I agree. That also is one of my least favorite tropes.

[00:22:18]

So the first half of the album, which is pretty much what I got through, was, like, Daltony tings about she cries herself to sleep, he doesn't give a rip, he's watching TV. Just not a great relationship is what I would say. These are energy, and that's not new news. I also feel like when they were divorcing, when all this went down, there were blind items that he had been spotted with other girls. I feel like I knew he was a dog.

[00:22:43]

A nefarious actor. A bad faith actor.

[00:22:45]

A bad faith actor. I didn't feel like he was a man scorned and that she left this wonderful guy. I never felt that way. So that clarification didn't change anything for me. Okay, the question still is SpongeBob. Now, I was just getting to the point in the album where she's talking. What was the song? That's actually really good, like, musically too. It was called we can't be friends parentheses. Wait for your love.

[00:23:10]

Ooh, it's giving a fair.

[00:23:12]

It's giving a fair. Like, maybe they try to be friends. How do you see lyrics on Spotify?

[00:23:18]

You know what? I'm an extremely tech savvy person, and I don't know, people are always taking screenshots. I feel like, go to the song and then swipe. Like, move your finger up.

[00:23:27]

Yeah, that's what I'm doing. I was doing this all morning because I wanted to read the lyrics as I was listening to the songs, and I feel like a grandmother.

[00:23:34]

It's this, like, elusive thing on social media. It's like I can do anything. I can make any TikTok. I cannot figure out how to do it. Let me see. I'm pulling up a song and then it's. Oh, no. Yeah, let's scroll here. Lyrics. I'm at the yes to end lyrics. Maybe you need to update. What song are you trying to do?

[00:23:53]

We can't be friends.

[00:23:56]

We can't be friends about the artist. No, they're not here yet.

[00:24:02]

They're not here yet. Okay, so I have. Not being a grandma.

[00:24:05]

No.

[00:24:08]

Okay. The critics, one of her most highly rated albums yet.

[00:24:16]

Yeah, I saw it. Got a 93. I met a critic. Those do go down and up. But that's a very good debut score.

[00:24:21]

Yeah, it's a good strong album. Like, musically, sonically, she sounds you want about Ariana.

[00:24:26]

Like she is a homewrecker, allegedly. But she makes fabulous music.

[00:24:31]

She does. So maybe when I finish the album I will know what's this allure of?

[00:24:39]

Yeah.

[00:24:40]

Yeah.

[00:24:42]

I'm having a hard time being intrigued by this story. I know. Like in the past couple of weeks, she's done a lot of press. There's been a lot of stories. We haven't really spoken about it on here. I'm not in that space.

[00:24:54]

Yeah. I feel like I'm not in the space of fawning over her personal life and whatnot. But her music, I'm willing to give it a shot. And I had the bandwidth to listen to music while I got ready this morning.

[00:25:06]

Wow. She's a whole new woman.

[00:25:07]

Which was just coincidental that it was new album day.

[00:25:10]

Yeah. Love that.

[00:25:11]

If it had been a different day, who knows? But I even added some to my songs. I'm going to keep listening to them. Wow. She also had a song called by, which is like a breakup song. So you think it's going to be sad? Sad, but it's like a bop. It's like a celebration. She really turned it on its head.

[00:25:28]

Totally random. But speaking of music, I saw something so interesting yesterday. We were talking about the idea of you, the Anne Hathaway movie. Apparently there's an original song that is a part of the movie because the movie's about a boy band that's very much like supposed to be one Direction. And the songwriter on that song is one of the songwriters on what makes you beautiful by one Direction. Like, they really went full one Direction fan fiction.

[00:25:52]

Love.

[00:25:53]

I was going to say, I bet the song's amazing.

[00:25:55]

I bet the song is amazing.

[00:25:56]

Yeah.

[00:25:57]

Exciting.

[00:25:58]

Yeah.

[00:25:59]

Speaking of more girlies who are speaking up, Kylie Jenner is in a new interview by the New York Times, published on Thursday, talking about her business and her new look. They say she's talking about Timothy, but she's talking about it just to say, I don't want to talk about that.

[00:26:15]

Also, I'm so glad you brought this up, because we need to talk about Kylie's new venture.

[00:26:18]

Oh, yes. She has a new canned cocktail company called Sprinter.

[00:26:23]

Yes. And she soft launched it last week. She just made a TikTok of her outfit, and she was holding this box, and I'm like, oh, this is totally a soft launch. I'm like, what the hell is in that box? I kept, like, screenshotting and trying to zoom in, and it's a canned cocktail. It's a vodka soda, and it's called Sprinter. And so funny, because the last time Kylie launched a business, Kai, I remember being negative. I'm like, this is. I have felt since then, like, every drop is cuter than the next. The current drop. Those off the shoulder obsessed love. So I was a hater, and I think I was wrong. I really do. I don't know if it's super successful, but I see it and I get it and I respect it. With this, I'm like, the same thing. I'm like, why?

[00:27:02]

Yeah. This feels even more why it does.

[00:27:04]

Right? Maybe I'm going to be wrong.

[00:27:06]

Maybe we'll be wrong. It feels super why? And I also feel like she does party and drink and likes alcohol, so it's not that shocking. But I feel like she's always drinking tequila. She likes to take shots, like, a vodka soda.

[00:27:20]

And this is just one of the many things about the kardashian universe that always confused me. Like, how this isn't in direct competition or just, like, conflict with eight one eight.

[00:27:28]

Yeah.

[00:27:28]

Which is tequila, which I guess because they're different spirits, they're not considered, like, the same category, but it's liquor.

[00:27:34]

I saw someone say that she would have been better off coming out with, like, an eight one eight tequila soda. Canned cocktail.

[00:27:42]

Yeah. But also the girls, a lot of the sisters are investors in eight one eight. And I believe Kylie as well. So I don't know.

[00:27:51]

I don't think it's so competitive, but I just don't know what brings Kylie to that space.

[00:27:58]

No, me neither. And why there are so many companies. Can you imagine what Kylie cosmetics would be if it was Kylie's sole focus and she really went so hard for it. She makes a lot of content when there's a drop and then never to be heard from again. Then there's a new drop and there's more feel. It's great to have your hand in a million things, but I feel like at some point it's too much and I feel like Sprinter. But maybe in a month I'm going to be like, I was so wrong about Sprinter because that's what I said about Kai.

[00:28:24]

Do you think that maybe it's not her company entirely and she's just, like, the face of this new company and maybe she's an investor and getting paid and it's less so, like, know, putting cans in boxes and shipping them out.

[00:28:38]

Actually, that's an amazing call because why would it be called Sprinter? Actually, I think Sprinter is actually a good name for a beverage. I actually really like it. But, like, Kai is clearly Kylie. Kylie cosmetics is clearly Kylie Kylie skin. So, yeah, maybe this is just a partnership because if she had her own vodka, it would be called, like, kai cocktails.

[00:28:57]

Yeah. And I also feel like the lunch would have been even.

[00:29:01]

It's actually a good point, maybe.

[00:29:03]

I'm sure there's easy ways to find out who's on the board business side of things.

[00:29:09]

That's a very, very good call. And that would make a lot more sense.

[00:29:12]

Yes. Well, in the interview, which runs the gamut, talking about her business and her new look, she was asked to respond to critics who say that her latest style is influenced by her current boyfriend, Timothy.

[00:29:22]

She said that, by the way, I.

[00:29:24]

Feel like I literally said it a few weeks ago, lol. That her new look is, like, Timothy's lady. No, you actually kind of did say that. The Golden Globes. That was her outfit. It was just like, I'm here to support my partner. I'm not being Kylie Jenner. I'm just being. My husband's an actor.

[00:29:44]

I feel like Kylie's recent style, which is much more pulled back and simple, is just reflective of the actual trends. Like, it's very much clean girl esthetic. Like, slick back bun freckles. I feel she's just a consumer of.

[00:29:59]

The industry, but also of her just maturing and growing up like you do. I know.

[00:30:06]

I pull back to be crazy. It's not like it's been like a complete 180 overnight, actually. If you look back from the King Kylie era to now mom of two, I feel like it's actually been like a slow progression of easing it down and pulling it back.

[00:30:20]

Yeah. Paring it back. So she had said that she doesn't know how she feels about that. She said, I just don't want to talk about personal things, aka Timothy.

[00:30:29]

That's so fine. And I feel like that's actually a really good way to handle it as opposed to when you don't want something spoken about Ben Platt, your publicist. Like, stopping the.

[00:30:38]

Yeah, yeah. Especially when it's meant to be an interview about your businesses. You have so many. Are one of the youngest, most successful women in the country. Why do I need to talk about my boyfriend of eight months?

[00:30:49]

So factual. New York Times, like, hello.

[00:30:52]

Yeah.

[00:30:52]

On International Women's Day.

[00:30:54]

Nonetheless. Nonetheless. It's disgusting.

[00:30:56]

Disgusting.

[00:30:57]

Do better. Do better.

[00:31:00]

Educate yourself.

[00:31:01]

Support women.

[00:31:02]

Jackie, read a book.

[00:31:04]

Support strong women.

[00:31:06]

Support on International Women's Day.

[00:31:08]

And every day and every day.

[00:31:12]

No, I really have been loving Kylie's recent. I feel like after she had her second baby, she was, like, Mia for a while, and she's slowly been coming out. I'm just loving everything I'm seeing.

[00:31:21]

Yeah. They also just talked about the impact of the criticism over her looks over the years. And she said, it's just years and years of not feeling like my face or looks are accepted. There's nothing anyone could ever say now that would hurt me. And I feel like that sentiment oozes out of her pores now. She doesn't care. And not in a way of, like, I don't care what people think about me. In a way of, like, I'm so hardened, what you say can't even come close to touching me.

[00:31:48]

And in hindsight, it's really so psychotic how for the last, what, eight years, how old is Kylie?

[00:31:54]

28. Okay. Yeah.

[00:31:56]

So for the last eight years, 26.

[00:31:58]

Sorry.

[00:31:59]

Okay, great. Even better, because I feel like she got her lips done when she was 18. So for the last eight years, how this incredibly young girl's face and body has been bared the brunt of every angry feminist beauty standard speech. She's literally just been a child for most of it. And even a 25 year old who's not a child is ill equipped to handle something like that. It's really, now, in hindsight, so crazy how much pressure and blame we put on Kylie Jenner for getting her lips done.

[00:32:27]

Yeah. And it's like.

[00:32:28]

It's crazy.

[00:32:29]

Also, everybody else does it and is doing so just. That's what's up with Kylie.

[00:32:40]

Kylie needs to do a podcast, actually, now that I'm thinking about, like, yeah, no, not have her own. Excuse me. She does a lot of really traditional media because I feel like she really wants to be taken seriously as a businesswoman. So those Wall street journals, like New York Times, that's fabulous. But I feel like. And we've been saying this for years, people really don't know Kylie on a personal level. And I think maybe she's not interested in people knowing that side of her. Like, that's something she wants to keep private. And I would totally respect that, too. But I feel like these old school always, she cares so much about what these magazines think, and I think if she sat down and just, like, for an hour, I'm not saying it should be the toast, but it really should be.

[00:33:16]

Yeah.

[00:33:17]

Just explained herself and talked through what she's been through from a non judgmental place. I feel like all of these companies, Forbes is always like, well, your paperwork said that in 2017. They're so rigid and so trying to doubt her. I feel like an interview on the toast, actually. I'm not trying to pitch myself, but if this did make its way, I know there are people in the kardashian universe, like, a lot of them, who listen to the show, and now that enough time has know, one of them was actually pitched to come on and they said she was a huge fan and things happen. But I feel like Kylie needs to do, if she's interested, needs to do an hour long podcast. I also think it would really benefit her businesses if people got to know her on a more vulnerable level and.

[00:33:58]

Got to know the reason why she's making certain things. Because a lot of the time, it's like, I didn't see this in the market, and I wanted to make know.

[00:34:06]

And people just see, every time the Kardashians lost their business, they just see it as, like, a money grab. They do. But I feel like it's more well thought out than that always.

[00:34:13]

I agree. I think the toast is absolute perfect for him.

[00:34:16]

But if it really is, by the.

[00:34:18]

Way, but if it weren't the toast.

[00:34:21]

Okay, that's a good. You know, Kendall had a very popular episode with Jay Shetty. I feel like that was really good for Kendall's brand. People got to know her, but she's very into therapy. I feel like that was a good match for her. I wouldn't recommend Jay Shetty for Kylie. The thing is, I can't think of anybody but us. Like, I'm being dead serious, but let me actually think. Let me look at the charts. Like, who?

[00:34:40]

You know, it would be a good episode, even though I still think she should come here. Joe Rogan.

[00:34:45]

Like, I knew you were going to say that. And I actually disagree.

[00:34:47]

Really? Because I feel like it wouldn't be so inside baseball, first of all, it'd be 3 hours, not 1 hour. And it would be, like, more zoomed out than like.

[00:34:57]

But I feel like, Joe Rogan is one of the people, and I respect him immensely, but I feel like he doesn't respect the. Like, he doesn't understand. Like, we have been there, seriously, since season.

[00:35:06]

Yeah, totally get it. I mean, it should be us.

[00:35:09]

It has to be sisters. Like, for real.

[00:35:11]

By the way, seriously, sisters.

[00:35:13]

Sound off in the comments, because I'm open to being wrong. Who better than us to do an hour long, not expose, like, in depth conversation with Kylie Jenner to really let people know who she is and what she's about? Unless it would be a podcast that we haven't heard of, but it's one of her close friends who has that podcast.

[00:35:28]

Like, dos had a. Yeah, yeah, that's exactly what it would be.

[00:35:31]

Because I'm looking through the top podcasts, like Theo Vaughn. No. Conan O'Brien. No. Ben Shapiro. Megyn Kelly. Like, no, no.

[00:35:38]

Smartless.

[00:35:40]

So I was actually going to suggest smartless, but fun fact at me. I talk about them all the time. I've never listened to an episode. I don't actually know what they do over there.

[00:35:46]

Well, we only know from their documentary what they do.

[00:35:49]

Like, they do shtick. Right. Are the interviews in depth? I actually don't know.

[00:35:53]

Armchair expert.

[00:35:56]

Yeah, actually, that's it. But I still think we're more.

[00:36:03]

It's like, if she went on armchair expert, would we even watch?

[00:36:06]

No, but you also have to think about the people who listen to these podcasts. I feel like people who tune into armchair, like, people who think they're so intellectual and probably hate the Kardashians.

[00:36:14]

Yeah, if you want to come.

[00:36:16]

But actually, that's the audience you kind of want to talk to, because you would be doing that to change hearts and minds.

[00:36:21]

But I don't think she gives a rip about changing hearts and minds.

[00:36:25]

I don't think so, either.

[00:36:26]

I think she wants to go somewhere that's comfortable, where she doesn't have to constantly keep proving herself. Because she's proven.

[00:36:31]

Yeah, the proof is there. The proof is there.

[00:36:36]

Okay, are you ready for our next story?

[00:36:39]

Yeah.

[00:36:40]

Speaking of someone who's misunderstood.

[00:36:43]

Me.

[00:36:44]

No, we're always speaking of you. So true. And are you misunderstood? I feel like you're extremely clear. We hear from you over an hour a day.

[00:36:52]

So funny, actually. I'm so glad you brought that up. On a really serious note, I feel like maybe a few years ago, one of my biggest gripes with my life was I really felt misunderstood, like, online. And I actually feel, like right in this moment and for the last maybe year, I don't know what I've done differently, but people get me now.

[00:37:09]

You feel understood? That's a good feeling.

[00:37:11]

I really do, actually.

[00:37:12]

I feel a little misunderstood.

[00:37:15]

Explain.

[00:37:16]

I feel like for the people who really listen to the show and pay attention, I feel understood by them. But I feel like people who are, like, listening with half an ear, and those aren't even the people I care to be understood.

[00:37:27]

You mean like haters?

[00:37:28]

Oh, I mean, of course a hater misunderstands me because there's nothing to hate.

[00:37:32]

Yes. Oh, my God. So fucking true. I love that.

[00:37:35]

Because if they understood me, they would love me.

[00:37:38]

That's how I've always felt.

[00:37:40]

Yeah.

[00:37:41]

I'm like, if you guys knew me, you wouldn't hate me. I always say if I met one of my haters, they would leave.

[00:37:45]

But if they're so rotten to the core, I actually think that they couldn't understand. That's the problem. They're so rotten, they can't understand something so good.

[00:37:55]

I don't want those people to understand me. No, I'm too good for them.

[00:37:59]

Okay. Well, someone who's misunderstood, or at least at one point, was Amanda Knox. There will be a limited series on Hulu about her. And guess who's playing Miss Amanda Knox?

[00:38:10]

Let me think. Emma Roberts? No, wait, let me think. How old was Amanda Knox? Is it like, for now or, like, back in the day?

[00:38:20]

Oh, wow. She was 16. Someone young, but not 16, this person?

[00:38:28]

No, of course not.

[00:38:29]

Yeah.

[00:38:29]

Like someone like 21, probably. Right, 25.

[00:38:33]

Yeah.

[00:38:34]

Oh, let me think.

[00:38:35]

I could probably give you clues.

[00:38:37]

Please.

[00:38:38]

I feel like you've actually never seen her lead in anything, but she's a very good, serious actress.

[00:38:44]

Okay.

[00:38:44]

Technically a Nepo baby love. And in the world of your favorite.

[00:38:51]

Person, Taylor Schweb's friend, technically a Neppo baby. Who?

[00:38:58]

Margaret Qualy. Okay.

[00:39:00]

I saw maid. First of all.

[00:39:02]

You did?

[00:39:03]

Yeah. I loved it. Second of all, love this casting. To death. To death.

[00:39:08]

And I feel like it's actually going to make you watch the Manok story, which I know you don't know her story because I cite it all the time and you don't know it.

[00:39:17]

I actually had this thought yesterday in real life that I wanted to share how they're so randomly, and I forget what example I was thinking about. They're so randomly, like, pop culture phenomena that, like, do not give a fuck about. Amanda Knox is one of them. And there was something else that I was thinking about yesterday that everybody talks about all the time, and I literally don't even know what people are talking about.

[00:39:37]

Yeah. Also, one other factoid about this project is that it will be produced by Monica Lewinsky, another misunderstood woman.

[00:39:51]

Connect the dots for don't.

[00:39:55]

Well, maybe because I guess the dots connected would be, like, misunderstood women. Peak of national attention.

[00:40:04]

Yeah.

[00:40:05]

Young girls like, bullying to no extent. It's a little different with.

[00:40:10]

No, I more so meant, like, what qualifications does one Monica Lewinsky have to do production? That's all I was saying. How is she involved in Hollywood now?

[00:40:20]

Oh, what does she do? I don't know.

[00:40:25]

I know she's, like, a spokesperson, and she always had that reformation campaign. But since that fateful day in the Oval Office, how has Monica Lewinsky made a living just, like, off of being a public figure?

[00:40:36]

I don't know. And there was american true story.

[00:40:41]

Okay, that was, like, five years ago.

[00:40:42]

Did she produce on that?

[00:40:45]

Maybe. And that's, like, where she got her.

[00:40:49]

But also, as we know, being a producer kind of just means, like, lending support.

[00:40:53]

Most of the time, being a producer is like a title in name only. There are actual producers, and a big job of producing is to raise money for the film and be like, this sort of overseer, liaison. But a lot of times when you see, like, oh, she produced it. It's just something they give you so you can make more money.

[00:41:11]

Yeah. Or it's good for the PR, for the show. This is another talking point for the show. Not saying that's the only reason, but producer, they're not really doing the heavy lifting.

[00:41:21]

No. There's a really enormous difference between a producer and an executive producer. Like, executive producers are out here producing.

[00:41:27]

And there's also a big difference between producer and director. Oh, of course. Everybody did not know that. I just assume producer meant something, and it's just something to say. It doesn't always mean something. It could sometimes.

[00:41:40]

You know where I learned that? Where entourage. They made Eric a producer, and he was, like, this moron who had literally only his last job was in a pizza place. He had no clue how to run anything, and it's literally just in name only.

[00:41:54]

Yeah. Interesting.

[00:41:59]

Yeah.

[00:42:00]

So that's an exciting bit of content that should be around soon.

[00:42:05]

What is a part of pop culture history or current, like, things that people are obsessed with that you seriously have.

[00:42:12]

No clue about Tiger King.

[00:42:16]

I feel like that was a trend.

[00:42:18]

People still are like, Tiger King's in jail. And he commented on Khloe Kardashian's picture.

[00:42:23]

Sorry, those people are losers. I mean, like, cool people.

[00:42:26]

Well, if it's cool, I'm in fact, speaking the facts today, and if I chose not to participate, like, it wasn't cool enough for me for a reason, but not for me.

[00:42:45]

Oh, sorry.

[00:42:46]

[00:42:48]

Is it the next one? It probably should be. Oh, wait, no, sorry. It shouldn't be.

[00:42:51]

It's actually not the next story, and it's not going to be because that will bring some levity to the end of the show.

Thank you, Claudia.

[00:47:28]

It's an absolute pleasure and an honor.

[00:47:30]

Our next story, which is some serious news, is that on Wednesday, the trial for the rust armorer in the case that fatally shot and killed Helena Hutchins on that movie that Alec Baldwin was working on, the rust armorer has been found guilty of involuntary manslaughter in the accidental shooting. So her name is Hannah Guterres Reed. She's the armorer on the ill fated western film Rust. She was convicted on Wednesday of involuntary manslaughter in the death of the film's cinematographer. The jurors returned a verdict after less than 3 hours of deliberations on Wednesday afternoon, following two weeks of testimony about safety lapses on set, she was acquitted of a separate charge of tampering. Excuse me, I lost my evidence. Tampering of tampering with evidence. She faces up to 18 months in prison at sentencing, which will be sometime in April, will be her sentencing.

[00:48:28]

This story, the whole thing gives me such a terrible pit and there's literally. And I don't know who it is. And it's so frustrating because it's kind of like this mystery. And a lot of people are like Alec Baldwin. One person was responsible for real bullets being on the set of this fake ass movie.

[00:48:44]

Yeah.

[00:48:45]

Who the fuck is that? That's all I want to know and why.

[00:48:49]

Yeah, and everybody else can say what.

[00:48:52]

They want and a lot of people are mad. Like, Alec Baldwin got nothing. But to my understanding, and Alec Baldwin, I feel like accidentally killing someone is so horrible. I don't think he was responsible for bringing a live bullet. Who was?

[00:49:07]

Yeah, true. Alec Baldwin will have his day in court in the next few months. And so I was reading something about how this bodes for him and they're saying like this is bad for him because now they're getting convictions and they're getting guilty verdicts. But I actually feel the opposite. I feel like because this person has been found guilty, it's like blame can be laid on them. And how many people can be accused of involuntary manslaughter unless they were working together?

[00:49:31]

Unless it's this conspiracy to kill this young mother. What could she possibly.

[00:49:35]

Right. I feel like because they found fault with someone, they don't need to find fault with everyone.

[00:49:42]

It's such a pit. I don't think about this often, but when I do and I sit back and just think, I can't believe it.

[00:49:49]

Yeah.

[00:49:50]

And because it was like a police investigation and there's so much police body camera footage. How much footage we have of Alec Baldwin? There's a video of him finding out that she's succumbed to her wounds and that she passed away.

[00:50:00]

What about the fact that the whole thing is on camera because they were filming a movie?

[00:50:05]

Oh my God, by the way. So true.

[00:50:07]

I wonder if they use that in the. It's really. It's really upsetting.

[00:50:18]

And I'm not like the biggest fan of Alec Baldwin, but I imagine. And I think the way him and more specifically his wife acted in the coming days was so disrespectful. And I don't think he was trying to kill this woman. I don't think he was responsible for bullets. And I imagine it is. And I think he's like a deeply disturbed person. I imagine this is immensely challenging to have dealt with.

[00:50:48]

Yeah. I don't think he meant to kill this woman. That's why I would be involuntary manslaughter. But I also don't think. I don't know how movie sets work but it's not on the actor to make sure that it's not a real gun. One they have. Someone hired an armorer. An armor. But they also have props managers. Like there's a million people like who would think for 1 second this is a real gun. We're on a set.

[00:51:08]

You would never think for 1 second that it's a real gun. But it's really also important to keep in mind that this was an independent film, like films with no money. So they probably didn't have a million armorer prop managers like real movies do. Having said that, there's still no reason for a real bullet to be.

[00:51:22]

Right. And also having said that, if you can't afford to have proper safety precautions on your set, then you shouldn't be making movies with guns.

[00:51:28]

Okay, wait. Also might be a dumb question. So it was a real bullet, but was it a real gun? Like, why are they using real guns on movies?

[00:51:38]

Real guns with fake bullets that just, like. So they'll sound authentic? This is my guess.

[00:51:44]

Okay. It's called imovie. Like, you can add a sound effect. That is so dumb to me. I didn't even put that together. Shouldn't the gun have been fake, too?

[00:51:51]

Yeah, like a prop.

[00:51:53]

You can make anything. I actually follow this prop manager on TikTok. She's, like, always showing, like, cool things in the prop room. You can make anything.

[00:52:01]

Yeah. Also, the other team's lawyer was arguing that this armor was responsible for bringing the live rounds to set and that she never properly ratled tested them to ensure they were dummies. So she brought them.

[00:52:14]

So where did she get them?

[00:52:15]

Well, she's a brought the gun to.

[00:52:18]

A shooting range, and we're shooting real.

[00:52:20]

Bullets and then used it on the.

[00:52:22]

They brought the gun to a shooting range like, we're shooting real bullets, and then brought that gun to set and used it, and they didn't switch it out.

[00:52:30]

That's insane.

[00:52:31]

That's so, like, negligent.

[00:52:34]

Negligent? Yeah.

[00:52:36]

You're obviously, like, an incapable person. I don't know how you've been holding a job all these years.

[00:52:39]

Yeah. And such a serious one at that.

[00:52:42]

Pittsville, USA, this whole story.

[00:52:44]

Right. Which is why. Are you ready for our fifth and final story now?

[00:52:47]

I am. To change up the energy.

[00:52:49]

That's why it's our fifth and final story. Love is blinds Jimmy and Chelsea spark reconciliation rumors with a Florida getaway. So Jimmy and Chelsea were spotted at the same restaurant in Florida yesterday. They were seemingly in town to attend a wedding for Chelsea's friend in the Fort Lauderdale area. She said, coming from my best friend's wedding at Mrs. P. 86. Can't wait to squeeze you. So she took a picture from a restaurant, Geotag the restaurant. Jimmy took another picture from the restaurant, geotagged the restaurant, and also, someone in the restaurant has footage of them at the same table. But the thing is, they weren't being.

[00:53:22]

They weren't trying to hide it.

[00:53:24]

It was being fake. Stealth like.

[00:53:25]

Oh, they weren't trying to hide it. Launched geotagging the same exact location. Sometimes the Internet sleuth can put together that your picture and her picture are at the same place because there's the same fork on the floor, but literally geotagging they wanted people to know that.

[00:53:36]

They wanted people to know.

[00:53:37]

So here's my question. Are they just being thirsty? Like, capitalizing on the moment? Totally understand. Maybe they're good friends and she needed a date. If they are back together, these two continue to endlessly confuse me. I could have sworn I would have bet my life that Jimmy hated this bitch.

[00:53:55]

Like, run as fast as he can. He would never look back.

[00:54:01]

I don't even know what to say. I'm so confused. Like, dead ass.

[00:54:06]

Yeah. And to be there for a wedding is not. Not a big deal unless they have a mutual friend. But even if they did, why are they dining together? Imagine if, after all of, like, they're one of two couples that are still together.

[00:54:23]

Oh, then also, I saw somebody had a video of clay and ad together. They were with a bunch of people, but they were, like, in the same, like, looks like they were, like, drinking and partying.

[00:54:32]

Oh, okay. I support them dating. I think they were a good match.

[00:54:37]

Me, too. And that's what he.

[00:54:38]

Yeah.

[00:54:43]

Yeah. I just remembered who I wanted to do for Queenie and Weenie of the week, and I'm excited.

[00:54:49]

Oh, that's exciting. Yeah. Now it's time.

[00:54:51]

But any other love is blind thoughts. We have the reunion coming up.

[00:54:54]

No, we need the reunion. I need to know about Jimmy and Chelsea. I need to know about Jimmy, Chelsea and Jess. I need to see Jess.

[00:55:03]

I was just having. A friend of mine who's not really into pop culture or TV has fallen down the love is blind rabbit hole because everyone was talking about it and then went back and watched, like, a million seasons. And he called me. He just had questions about this person, that person, and he was like, how did Nick and Vanessa get this job? And I'm like, I'm so glad you asked, because it's, like, one of the most interesting things in the world. They obviously signed up for this random hosting gig, not knowing it was going to become, like, a cultural phenomenon. And it's literally a dream for two. They're working actors. They're not people who have ever been able to just rest on their laurels in terms of money or fame. This is probably, like, I bet they go to bed every night and thank God for this job.

[00:55:40]

Yeah.

[00:55:41]

And by the way, what do they work one day a year? It's literally. They're never in the show.

[00:55:45]

Yeah. A lot of celebrities host all the time. There are a million shows like this. There are a dime a dozen. Yeah. They struck gold. I'm happy for them. They need to.

[00:55:55]

It's probably like a dream gig, too. It's like so little work and so much attention. So much bet they're. I bet they're paid handsomely, too.

[00:56:03]

Yeah.

[00:56:04]

Okay. It is time for our final segment of the week. We're going to miss you guys so much. It's Queenie and Weenie of the week, where Jackie and I award two awards. Queenie of the week and weenie of the week. Somebody who acted like a queen this week and should be applauded. And somebody that acted like a weenie this week who deserves to be shamed.

[00:56:18]

Yeah.

[00:56:19]

Jax, you want to kick us off with Weenie?

[00:56:21]

Oh, I guess my weenie of the week is JVN.

[00:56:24]

Me too.

[00:56:25]

Oh, fun.

[00:56:26]

Yeah. Big loser energy. I'm sorry. Like, to build a brand off of kindness and rake in so much money and fame from it and to actually end up being like a dick. Not cool. JVN. Not cool.

[00:56:37]

Agreed.

[00:56:39]

Who's your queenie?

[00:56:40]

My queenie? I feel like I had.

[00:56:46]

Also, I did want to give an honorable mention to Weenie of the week, to everyone involved in the Noah Cyrus Tish Cyrus Dominic Purcell saga because that is not even weenie behavior, it's incest behavior. But it deserves a mention here.

[00:57:00]

Yeah. My queenie of the week is Romeo for being a precious, sweet angel to come into his mommy's life and sweep everyone off their feet with his cuteness and handsome demeanor.

[00:57:10]

Thank you. That's very sweet. My queenie of the week is similar. Luanne delics. I just love this woman and I love that she never gives up on know. It's actually inspiring for real.

[00:57:21]

Hopeless romantic.

[00:57:23]

She's a hopeless romantic. She's going to get married. The seven husbands of Luanne de like she's going to get married until it works. And I actually feel like. I know I sound crazy. I mean, she definitely called a paparazzi on them to and I feel like that actually would put him off because he's like an extremely wealthy person and they don't like that. But if he can get past that, it's who she is. Like, you have to know who you're marrying. I feel like this could be, like the one.

[00:57:43]

Agree. But I also feel like if he valued privacy so much, he wouldn't even dare date a celebrity.

[00:57:48]

True.

[00:57:48]

And this isn't the first.

[00:57:50]

Yeah, twice.

[00:57:51]

So he's like one of those that's like, okay, sure.

[00:57:54]

Yeah. Showing a little leg.

[00:57:56]

No, don't take my picture.

[00:57:58]

Cheese. So, yeah, I feel like she's the queenie of many of my weeks. But this week in particular, when I saw that picture, it really brought me immense joy. Like, I really love this woman.

[00:58:08]

Yeah, I love that.

[00:58:09]

Yeah. So that's our show. That's our week. Four day work week for us. Still felt long.

[00:58:15]

It's a grind.

[00:58:16]
